Build a Nigeria-Ready CV for Any Role

The invisible gate

Most large employers run your CV through ATS software before a human reads it — and a CV that parses cleanly is the difference between your content being seen and being skipped.

AlmiCV ends the guessing. Our resume checker reviews your document the way company software does, flagging problems instantly so you fix them live — before you hit apply.

Questions answered

What does a CV need to look like in Nigeria?

Common in Nigeria: listing 2–3 named referees with contact details directly on the CV; photos, date of birth, religion, marital status and state of origin are increasingly left off (except for some government roles). AlmiCV applies these Nigeria conventions for you and can translate into English.

Will AlmiCV get my CV past company tracking software?

It scores your CV the way modern ATS software does and shows you exactly what to fix — starting with the biggest filter: matching your job title to the role.

Is there a free trial?

You get 7 days free with a card on file, then a flat $12/month — no hidden download walls, no weekly renewals. Cancel inside the trial and you pay nothing.

Will the AI make my CV sound robotic?

No. It sharpens your own sentences instead of replacing them with generic blocks. You keep full control of your own voice.
